that's one of the little pieces of info i can't seem to find anywhere in my paperwork or on the k2 site - but seeing as how the 97 catalog has a Beast GDT, Animal and Beast which are the same basics as a 756, they list out as a 68 x 110 BB.

I was going to ask the same question about the BB on my 955. I swapped out the BB from my 855 but it was worse than my original.

If you guys aren't sure, I'll just have to hope the LBS gets it right.

Just took the cranks of my wife's 856 and measured the B/B,
Its 68 X 108mm running a CD crankset (22/32/42)
hope this is of some use.
